Prices

Price model

In the simplest fashion, the pricing model takes into account the high development effort of Master stacks and understands the various support efforts as a chargeable service.

netX as a “module” and customer develops his own software
All the required documentation for this is available on the Internet including the micro code for Ethernet and CAN. For complex communication systems such a EtherCat, this can be obtained for a one-off payment (compared to IPs for FPGA).
Support is exclusively via the FAQ forum and no further contracts need be entered into.
netX as “communication module with Firmware”
The protocol stack is obtained as an unchangeable, loadable Firmware against a one-off payment. There are no further licences for Slave Stacks. A licence is required per controller for Master Stacks. In both cases a licence must be obtained within the framework of the netX Basis Support Agreement or the netX Technology User Agreement. An annual fee is charged for this.
netX as “application platform with protocol stack” and customer develops his own Firmware”
The protocol stack is provided as a linkable object module or as source code for a one-off payment. A further licence must be paid for per controller for Master Stacks.
A condition is the signing of the netX Technology User Agreement which also takes into account aspects such as ESCROW agreements and strategic information for further development of the netX technology.
